• MP_READ_E May be returned if there is an error while generating the shared secret key
• MP_EXPTMOD_E May be returned if there is an error while generating the shared secret key
• MP_TO_E May be returned if there is an error while generating the shared secret key

Example

DhKey key;
int ret;
byte priv[256];
byte agree[256];
word32 agreeSz;

// initialize key, set key prime and base
// wc_DhGenerateKeyPair -- store private key in priv
byte pub[] = { // initialized with the received public key };
ret = wc_DhAgree(&key, agree, &agreeSz, priv, sizeof(priv), pub,

function wc_DhKeyDecode

int wc_DhKeyDecode(
    const byte * input,
    word32 * inOutIdx,
    DhKey * key,
    word32

This function decodes a Diffie-Hellman key from the given input buffer containing the key in DER format. It stores the result in the DhKey structure.

Parameters:

• inOutIdx pointer to an integer in which to store the index parsed to while decoding the key
• key pointer to the DhKey structure to initialize with the input key

• ASN_PARSE_E Returned if there is an error parsing the sequence of the input
• ASN_DH_KEY_E Returned if there is an error reading the private key parameters from the parsed input

Example

DhKey key;
word32 idx = 0;

byte keyBuff[1024];

    // error decoding key
}

    DhKey * key,
    const byte * p,
    word32 pSz,
    const byte * g,
    word32 gSz
)

This function sets the key for a DhKey structure using the input private key parameters. Unlike wc_DhKeyDecode, this function does not require that the input key be formatted in DER format, and instead simply accepts the parsed input parameters p (prime) and g (base).

Parameters:

• key pointer to the DhKey structure on which to set the key
• p pointer to the buffer containing the prime for use with the key
• pSz length of the input prime
• g pointer to the buffer containing the base for use with the key

ret = wc_DhSetKey(key, p, sizeof(p), g, sizeof(g));

if ( ret != 0 ) {
    // error setting key
}

function wc_DhParamsLoad

int wc_DhParamsLoad(

    word32 * pInOutSz,
    byte * g,
    word32 * gInOutSz
)

This function loads the Diffie-Hellman parameters, p (prime) and g (base) out of the given input buffer, DER formatted.

Parameters:

• input pointer to a buffer containing a DER formatted Diffie-Hellman certificate to parse
• inSz size of the input buffer
• p pointer to a buffer in which to store the parsed prime
• pInOutSz pointer to a word32 object containing the available size in the p buffer. Will be overwritten with the number of bytes written to the buffer after completing the function call
• g pointer to a buffer in which to store the parsed base
• gInOutSz pointer to a word32 object containing the available size in the g buffer. Will be overwritten with the number of bytes written to the buffer after completing the function call

See:

• wc_DhSetKey
• wc_DhKeyDecode

Return:

• 0 Returned on successfully extracting the DH parameters
• ASN_PARSE_E Returned if an error occurs while parsing the DER formatted DH certificate
• BUFFER_E Returned if there is inadequate space in p or g to store the parsed parameters

Example

byte dhCert[] = { initialize with DER formatted certificate };
byte p[MAX_DH_SIZE];
byte g[MAX_DH_SIZE];
word32 pSz = MAX_DH_SIZE;
word32 gSz = MAX_DH_SIZE;
